What intention does the Pope ask all Catholics to pray for in June? Here we tell you

In the June edition of The Pope Video, Pope Francis invites us to pray for the situation of migrants fleeing from war or hunger, that they might “may find welcome and new living opportunities.” When we look at migrants with fear, the Pope says, “then the spectre of walls appears – walls on the earth separating families, and walls in hearts.” Pope Francis recalls that “whoever welcomes a migrant welcomes Christ,” and asks that, in this sense, they be accompanied, promoted and integrated into society.
